What do you guys think about a party with an eastern(asian) theme? I was thinking of 2 or 3 Monks, an Assassin(Ninja) and a Mage. My first thought was a party of 5 or 6 Monks and that would probably be pretty damn funny to see, but I think it would get a bit boring after a while. Maybe an all bard party..do songs stack?

Just looking for some new stuff to do, been through the game 4 times already using different alignments and party combinations. The great thing about it is the game is STILL fun. Never in my life have I played a game with more replay value..and I thought BG1 had replay value .

Couldn't agree more about the replay value...3 monks? you have that many monk portraits?

Heh, I was just thinking about the portraits. I think I'll start checking out the custom portrait sites .

Speaking of portraits, Gamer Alliance and Lady Nightshade have some decent ones:

Lady Nightshade's ones are really cool. The actual portraits look a lot better than the thumbnails.

Ziroc's Ironworks portraits rock too.

I appreciate the help with the portraits, but I'd really like for the discussion to stay on topic(which is well..odd party combinations ). So, anyone mind giving me their opinion on my party and my question about bard songs?

I don't think bard song from the same kit of bard is cumulative, although I could be wrong since I have VERY little exposure to bards.

Well, it wouldn't be from the same kit, I'd have 2 or 3 Blades, a Skald and a Jester, maybe a regular Bard too? Don't know. I'd have to see how the songs stack..if they do at all.

Well, apparently songs don't stack. I just tried it out, if you start singing a song with one bard then start singing with another the first song is cancelled out.

Oh well, an all bard party would have been interesting, but it just isn't worth it without all the songs.

I think to many of one character class will make the game just that bit boring (becuase u cant experiment with different classes)
